Pros and Cons?

I was talking over getting this with my mother the other day, and her big concern was that my heavy flow and the definition of heavy flow are not the same.

I have a huge flow (TMI?) and have leaked every period despite wearing super plus tampons, or extra long pantyliners. So, you can understand how hesitant I am to jump head first into a new item. But I like the idea of being green as well, so really it's a toss up!

Help please!

You know...I have a ladycup, which DOES cost about that much. And I not only dropped it in the toilet, but flushed it! (STUPID automatic flush! I got up to fish the damn thing out, and there it went!) But it was still worth it. Menstrual cups are awesome, and I promptly reinvested. I'd give it a try!

I was so mad...it was basically brand new. I had bought a colored ladycup, which was defective, so it had to be replaced, and then I flushed the replacement! But we've lived happily every after, me and the second replacement cup. ;)
